Create a dockerignore template for R-related files

Creates a dockerignore template with patterns to ignore common R-related files and directories.

Usage

dk_template_ignore_r(.dockerignore = NULL, renv = TRUE, packrat = TRUE)

Arguments

.dockerignore

Optional existing dockerignore object to add patterns to

renv

Include renv folders (default: TRUE)

packrat

Include packrat folders (default: TRUE)

Value

A dockerignore object with R-related ignore patterns

Details

This template adds patterns to ignore common R-related files and directories that aren't needed in a Docker image, including:

• .Rproj.user/: RStudio user settings

• .Rhistory: R command history

• .RData: R workspace data

• .Ruserdata: R user data

• *.Rproj: RStudio project files

• *.rds: R serialized data files

• .Rcheck/: R package check directories

If renv = TRUE, it also adds patterns to ignore {renv} library directories, which should be rebuilt inside the container.

If packrat = TRUE, it adds patterns to ignore {packrat} library directories.
